1970 Jaguar E Type 2+2 Coupe Buyer’s Guide

The 1970 Jaguar E Type 2+2 Coupe model’s components and systems are far different from American cars produced during this same time period. Because of this, there are some specific considerations you should take into account before purchasing any E Type. First, brakes on the Jaguar E Type are rear inboard brakes, and any serious work on them requires the removal of the entire sub-frame. This isn’t a job for the inexperienced weekend mechanic. What many don’t realize is that there are far more moving parts on these brakes compared to those on American cars and doing any work can quickly become overwhelming. While parts are generally easy to find due to high production, you’ll want to ensure you’ve got a mechanic you can rely on. Finding a model with good maintenance records is also a positive in this regard. Additionally, one of the other major concerns for these classics is rust. Always have a pre-purchase inspection to ensure you’ve got a good grasp on any rust repair that will be needed. These considerations are true of the 2+2 Coupe, as well as the OTS and FHC models.
